Frequently Asked Questions

Preventative Maintenance FAQ

What does preventative electrical maintenance include?
A licensed Lotus Electric technician inspects your panel, GFCI/AFCI outlets, smoke and CO detectors, lighting circuits, and surge protection. We thermal-scan key connections, tighten lugs that have loosened over time, and document everything in a written report.
How often should my Duluth home have an electrical inspection?
For most Duluth homes we recommend a full preventative check once per year — ideally before winter — because freeze-thaw cycles, ice dams, and heavier winter loads (space heaters, holiday lights, EVs) put extra stress on panels and connections.
How much does the preventative maintenance program cost?
Membership pricing is flat-rate and posted up front when you enroll. Members also receive priority scheduling and a discount on any repair work uncovered during the visit. Call (218) 729-2953 for current pricing.
Will preventative maintenance lower my insurance premium?
Many Minnesota homeowner-insurance carriers offer credits for documented electrical inspections, especially in homes 25+ years old. We provide an itemized inspection report you can submit to your carrier.
